Sweet Serendipity

Best friend’s brothers are supposed to be off-limits…

Derek
When Nathan asks me to keep an eye on his brother, of course, I say yes. However, Nathan probably wouldn’t have asked if he knew I’ve fallen head over heels for Ryan. Now Ryan’s back in town, and spending time with him has only reinforced my feelings. He makes me want more out of life. He makes me want to take a chance. But what if telling him how I feel destroys our friendship?

Ryan
I’ve had a crush on Derek for years, but he’s way out of my league. Derek is older, he’s successful, and he has his shit together. There’s no doubt we have chemistry as proven by an unexpected encounter—my blood sizzles just thinking about it—but he could have anyone. What would he see in me?
Thank goodness for Valentine’s Day, a heartfelt letter, and a little girl who recognises love when she sees it.
Sweet Serendipity is a sweet and sexy low-angst story featuring a brother’s best friend, opposites attract, and an age gap, with a Valentine’s Day happily ever.
